NVIDIA NVS 4200M & 1920 x 1080

#1 Post by tom3k380 » Thu Mar 31, 2016 8:21 pm

I'm currently looking at a ThinkPad T520 on eBay.
It has the NVIDIA NVS 4200M & Intel HD 3000 GPUs with an LCD resolution of 1600 x 900.
Will a 1920 x 1080 LCD work on this machine if I purchase it?
ThinkPad W520: i7-2760QM @ 2.40GHz ~ 20GB RAM ~ 500GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD ~ 2GB NVIDIA Quadro 2000M ~ FHD+ @ 1920x1080 ~ Win 10 Pro x64.
ThinkPad T520: i5-2520M @ 2.50GHz ~ 8GB RAM ~ 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD ~ Intel HD 3000 ~ FHD+ @ 1920x1080 ~ Ubuntu 16.04 x64.

Yes. Make sure to get the B156HW01 v4 panel, since it's the one that has the 95% color gamut. You could also consider the v7 version, which has 500:1 contrast ratio instead of 400:1, but is glossy, not matte.
Current Thinkpads: W530 (functional classic keyboard mod), X301, T61, T60, T43, T23, 600X, 770
Other: mk5 Toughbook cf-19, mk1 Toughbook cf-53
